Atheists dealing with their religious families

That's like... just... no. An 8 year old has no business with a fb account. Get that kid outside on a playground stubbing her toes and eating dirt.

Quote:I am very anti-religious and this is why I bring up my thoughts as much as I can when the god is mentioned. So far the girls have not said anything that pushed me to make a decision between breaking the boundaries or being polite.

That's why I say I could never do what my sister does: nanny for a religious family. It would likely end up costing me my livelihood to speak up and correct the kids. I'd have to spend some serious time plotting how to correct them without explicitly bringing up the issue of god so the kid doesn't go running to the parents and say something like "Well, she said God couldn't have made the universe, that nobody knows how the universe was made!" Then I'd be out on the streets.
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.
